Dyslexia Awareness

It’s a myth that dyslexia is rare. Dyslexia occurs on a spectrum, and in the United States NIH research has shown that dyslexia affects 20%. That’s 1 in every 5 people!

For Dyslexia Awareness Month this October, we're celebrating the unique strengths and talents of individuals with dyslexia. The Dyslexia Dash is more than just a run – it's a movement that sparks understanding, fosters inclusivity, and supports a world where dyslexia is embraced as a remarkable aspect of diversity.

Join Us!

Every step you take and every stride you make will help us raise awareness about dyslexia and provide vital support to those who navigate this journey. All funds raised from the Dyslexia Dash will go towards educational programs, workshops, and resources that empower individuals with dyslexia to excel and thrive.

Register now and be part of a movement that uplifts and transforms lives. Together, we can turn challenges into triumphs and light up the path for a brighter future.
